Voting during early voting is the same as voting on Election Day. When you get to the early voting center, you will check in to vote, receive your ballot and vote as any other election. 

There will be instructions available at the early voting poll site to familiarize you with the ballot.  There will also be a notice to voter and bill of rights.  You may ask an election inspector to explain how to vote, or if you need any assistance. 

If you vote during the early voting period, you are not eligible to vote on Election Day.
